Welcome to the Boreal Owl - RSSOwl 2.1

RSSOwl 2.0 is the next major release with a lot of new and exciting features.
The idea to work on a completely new RSSOwl was born back in Summer 2005. At that
time it became clear to me that it was very hard to catch up with the features of other
readers without redesigning everything. I teamed up with another developer (Ismael) to work
on RSSOwl 2 from scratch. Our main goal is to provide a newsreader that is powerful, easy to
extend and easy to use. We chose the
Eclipse Rich Client Platform as framework and db4o as
powerful database to store all the news. In combination with the well-known full-text search
engine Lucene, we are able to give you the best experience
of reading, managing and seeing through all your news.
